Link has a nice timeline of the relationship between HP and Palm. HP bought Palm in April 2010.
- Did they buy Palm and sell it in less than one and a half years, hardly making any products with webOS? It's like buying something and not using it.
- Was buying Palm an epically bad business decision?
- What's going to happen to the TouchPad?
Engadget interviews Stephen DeWitt, head of HP's webOS global business unit:

From his answers, it's no wonder they're in this debacle. They need management with an idea of what they're doing. Apparently, HP's stock fell 25% in 5 days.
